hi there follow this link and copy in the Breville healthy grill HG11,it says the manual is available now. i did'nt try to down load it, but it looks kosha! www.productmanuals.org

I have a copy of this, am willing to post it to someone if they still need it. If I don't hear from anyone with one month I am going to toss it!

Manufacturer's website should provide downloadable instructions for the items they produce.

Maybe count your losses and buy a different brand

sounds like the internal heating element has blown, probably cheaper to buy a new one. but if your handy at repairs then change the elements. In the UK spare parts can be obtained from a company called "Buy Spares" they are online and do instructional video's on how to repair certain items

Corroded element. Renew. Popping/bursting/spitting caused by steam expanding inside normally dry element tube.

Element-ary, dear Naomi. Either the element (embedded into the soleplate) is burnt out, or the thermoswitch is faulty. The thermoswitch is the temperature-adjustable thermostat under the temp-dial knob. Ask a friendly electrician to check it for you. It's not likely that your local electrical stockist will have an exact match, as they'd have to keep a warehouse full of spares for different makes/models. In short, if something's blown, chuck the iron.

If your power-socket is off, it won't. (I've done it several times, foolishly cursing the toaster). :rolleyes:Otherwise unplug from wall, remove covers, check by pressing base down with a pen etc. On most auto-eject toasters, a powerful electromagnetic solenoid (electric magnet) holds the base (slice carriage) down while cool and warming up. When preset temperature is reached, solenoid is de-energized, releasing its magnetic hold on the base, allowing springs to pop bread up.If you (or friend) has a tester and expertise, check solenoid (small coil) for resistance. If OK, (not open circuit), problem is in control circuitry.

Oxidized or worn thermo-switch contacts. Or, sometimes old age (kettle!:) or overheating can cause springy contacts to bend out of shape. Get tech-minded person to open/inspect & renew as required.

Breville Hot Cup spitting: Hi Louise. My HAZ upright kettle did the same thing recently. Sounds like your element-tube has a rust-hole, which allowed water to enter the normally dry and cozy filament area. The water that seeps inside hits the red-hot filament, vaporises to steam which violently expands out of the pinhole. Remove element, check for corrosion, renew. Hope this helps. Clive.

Google it!

come with the machine in the user manual

It is probably clogged with hard water deposits. You can use white vinager or something like CLR pour into the iron an let it set for awhile an allow it to eat away the deposits. Don't turn on iron until it's finished an cleaned with fresh water.

This is for assembling the Breville Wok lid. This has a built in vent that lets steam escape during cooking. There are 8 pieces not including the glass cover: bolt, metal vent, black O ring, tan round plastic piece, black lid piece (has open/close) on it, spring, clear plastic seal, lid handle.Order of assembly as follows, starting on inside of glass cover.1. Bolt.2. Metal vent piece sits on top of bolt.3. Black O ring fits snuggly onto of vent piece.Insert what you have assembled against inside of glass cover, bolt poking through topside of glass.4. Add tan plastic piece with 3 prongs going facedown against the glass hole of cover.5. Larger black lid piece goes next. You will need to line up the openings on tan piece and this lid piece so that it sits semi-flush against glass. When complete this piece will turn in place to open/close vent (less than 1/4 turn before stopping).6. Add clear plastic seal to underside of handle.7. Place spring between handle and top of black lid piece and screw together until snug.Test lid by turning lid piece. It should move back and forth according to the open/close print on top. If no luck, go to step 5 and try again. It is a little tricky, but does work when done correctly.

Take it back for warranty.
